frst-clsss business, besides a share of the

lines are willing to concede. and the problem
with them is to gain a larger business without
reducing rates. The proposition submitted to

The western Rate War.

The efforts making to bring about a reconcile
alton between the roads running west, north
west and southwest out of Chicago thus far have
proved unavailinR, aud, in fact, the situation is
now more desperate than at any time previous
The trouble all lies in the fact that there six
roads to every important point, and not business
enough to give two first-class lines employment
Az q result all hungry for business, and
anxious to keep out OF the hands of a receiver
and are willing to take freight at most any rate
they can get At present there is no proba-
bility of n harmonizing OF matters and the
bringing about of q maintenance of rates, unless
the old and strong lines absorb subsidize the
weak ones. The decentralization of rates out of
Chicago. more especially passenger rates. is ser-
Dusly affecting rates from Indianapolis and other
Western railroad centers. A correspondent Of
the New York Post writes from Chicago regard
ing the situation there that 1.-THE position is
made worse by the constantly growing DISPOSE
lion Of the public to demand further reduction
IN rates by Legislative enactments. AS an in
stance of the increasing disposition to demand
class legislation, 1t Is only necessary to note the
threats of the socalled jobbers at Lincoln Neb,
who met here few days since with the man
ayers of the Missouri River roads, and definitely
demanded that they be given the same rates to
Lincoln that were paid to Omaha, although the
haul to Lincoln is much longer. Wien their
demand was refused, they Informed the man
ayers they would ask the Governor of Nebraska
TO convene an extra session of the Legislature,
and secure the passage OF a law compelling the
roads to make such rates"

roads until Sept. 80 to make their reports and

respect TO the matters to be reported upon and
the form of the report. the wish was generally
concurred in that the commission shall in its
requirements conform nearly as possible to
the present practices of the railroads and the re-
quirements OF State commissions, though In the
further discussion it was found that these diff

were suggested b. almost all the roads repre-

UNION GOSPEL MEETINGS.
An Interesting Meeting at the Congre-
gational Church Last Evening.

Dr. Pentecost selected for his text last ey-
ening these words from the third chapter of
John Therefore the world knoweth US not
because il knew him." BY the world was
meant the community at large, and the word
knowledge was used in the sense of aeknowl-
edge The christian has been said to be the
worlds Bible. If he is found going astray
however, the world calls him hypoerite-a
term of reproach that compliments his reGg-
ion at the same time it reprehends him, init
mating that religion is considered stronger
and purer than he. At the very threshold of
christian life we find the new birth. Belief
in Christ is a sane qua non to fellowship with
God There is one sense in which We will al
ways remain sons of-.Adam-in the flesh, and
another sense in which We will always remain
sons of Goblin the spirit. The address of
the speaker was eloquent and stirring. DIR.
Pentecost adds to the magic of a commanding
presence, the advantages of rich, full voice,
and natural, easy delivery. He was greatly
assisted in his work BY the beautiful singing
of Mr. and Mrs Stebbins. At the close of
Mr. Pentecosts remarks, Rev. Mr.. White
offered prayer, and the regular meeting
closed, portion of the audience remaining,
however for a short period of prayer and tes-
tmony.

An Expression of Approval That DC
casioned a Smile.

An amusing incident is related of the
Messrs. Jones of the Bailey Praying Band
when they held their revival meetings in this
city. One of these well known revivalists
was very apt to signify his approval of what
was said by frequent Explanations of a fervent
character. To such an extent had he be
come accustomed to this that it was whispered
about that he was impelled quite as much by
the irresistible force of habit as by the force
of his feelings---although no one who ever
knew this excellent gentleman could doubt
his sincerity.
At one of these meetings the calmer Mr.
Jones was dwelling upon the fact that matters
which seemed similar might be vastly different
Now for example" he said, both myself
and my brother here are named Jones. Yet
we are in nowisc related, neither are we any
thing alike" Thank the Lord" was the
hearty ejaculation of the other Mr.. Jones,
and the audible smoker that ran through the
congregation for a moment put from mind the
solemn purpose of the meeting.
